This mom and pop boba spot is pretty underrated compared to other places in stockton! I would come here time and time again for their drinks and they have a wide variety of drinks you can choose from. Staff was very helpful and pleasant as well, very informative with how to drink their drinks as well! The boba is not too hard and it's actually chewable unlike some places LOL Interior wise, it's very clean and well kept! I love all the decorations and photo opportunities you can take as well. I can also see they have charging outlet to study here. I highly recommend coming out here to try this place out! I also tried their popcorn chicken and calamari, taste is amazing - crunchy and well proportion! They also didn't charge us extra for ranch or extra sauce unlike other places as well. They also have an area to adjust spices to your liking. Thank you Tea 86 for an amazing experience :) We will be coming back soon!! read more

We've been here twice now and have mixed feelings. Our first visit, we ordered the Mango Sticky Rice Sundae, fruit tea, and popcorn chicken. The Mango Sticky Rice Sundae was delicious and definitely the highlight. It was our first time trying it, but it was pretty pricey for the portion size. The fruit tea was just okay and didn't really stand out. The popcorn chicken was a bit too salty and had more batter than meat. We came back to try the Mango Sticky Rice Smoothie and the ube soft serve. Unfortunately, the smoothie was a letdown--it was too heavy on the coconut milk and didn't have much mango flavor. The ube soft serve was also much smaller than expected for the price and was on the sweeter side. The service was friendly, and the ambiance inside was nice enough. The surrounding plaza wasn't our favorite, but the boba shop itself was pleasant. Overall, expect Bay Area pricing. While some items didn't live up to the cost, the Mango Sticky Rice Sundae was unique and tasty enough that we'd probably order it again if we're ever in the area. read more

This might be my new favorite tea place! Despite the location, the interior is super cute and very instagram worthy. The staff is very friendly and welcoming but if you don't love ordering in person, they have a nice new kiosk where you can do everything without ever talking to a person. They have some delicious and unique options here and I love that you can personalize the drinks. The Red Bean Matcha Marble is maybe the best milk tea I have ever had. It's more like a dessert that you drink. The Thai Green Tornado with Puff Cream is a close second and more like a tea, not as thick as the matcha. The drinks here are fantastic. I will say that I upped the sweetness and the person making the drinks came out to check with me and make sure I wanted them that sweet. I would advise you to go with their recommended sweetness levels as they know what they are doing and I definitely had a sugar high after not listening. It's nice that they care about their customers and their product. There are so many other flavors I can't wait for my next visit and I highly encourage you to sop here and give them a try. You can't help but leave with a smile on your face and a sweet taste in your mouth. read more

I was doing laundry nearby Tea 86. I was feeling a little parched and wanted to try out some drinks from there. As soon as I went in, I noticed how cute the place was. The aesthetic was very darling. It makes you want to sit down and enjoy your food and drink there. I had a young lady helped me, and she was very attentive and friendly. Noticed I was new and told me about their drink cup sizes. They have this bucket cup that I was so excited to try. I ordered an iced jasmine milk tea bucket, and a velvet Matcha latte, and decided to order something healthy to munch on the side, fried tofu. I must say everything tastes amazing. Definitely coming back to dine in just so that I can absorb the cuteness of the establishment. read more

New boba spot I tried while visiting my sisters in the 209. They are boba connoisseurs to say the least but they haven't tried this spot therefore it made sense to go and see if this spot would be added to our favs. We ordered matcha latte, velvet crème brûlée matcha, oolong tee and a sparkling tea (can't remember the name) and all the drinks were delicious! I was savoring every sip, and the honey boba was cooked just right, soft and sweet. The flavors were spot on and good amount of sweetness. Oh, also ordered the fried calamari and popcorn chicken and the food was also on point! Just wish the portion was a little more :) service was great and it was so cute and clean inside. We will definitely be returning !! read more

Located in a former Lion's market (now closed), this shop is one of a few businesses still in business in this plaza. Once inside, it's a decently decorated and spacious store that serves reasonably priced boba drinks. You have a choice of ordering at the counter or via a kiosk located to right of store. Service was friendly, quick and efficient. Drinks were ok considering location. We had a Strawberry Matcha Latte and a Jasmine MT.....both ok if you're in the area. read more

Tea 86 is our favorite place to get tea on a regular basis. The lovely people who work here are always very sweet, kind, patient, and are constantly working on the newest trends. They pride themselves on using real fruit, real sugar, and real ingredients. Their menu is expansive, and can be a little daunting, but if you're ever unsure, they're certainly there to help. A few favorites include both the green and brown Thai milk teas, and if anything is available as a "stormy," try it! We've had their popcorn chicken and fried tofu, and both are equally addictive. read more

Tea86 is tucked away in the corner of a desolate plaza. Not the nicest area but parking is ample and seating is plentiful and the staff are so friendly it made my day. I was recommended a sweetness level of 75% based on my order but I opted for 50% sweet for my taro milk tea and I was satisfied. The taro component was creamy and rich while the milk tea component was very milky (they do upcharge for alternative milks). Mixing the drink created a nice flavor profile. Would stop by again if in the area but wouldn't go out of my way considering price and location. read more

There's a lot of boba spots in Stockton now and I usually go to my typical t4, quicklys, or share tea. However this place is my new fav place!! I heard they just opened and it's near pho lucky. Drinks are a little pricey but it was so good! They have a wide selection of drinks as well. Next time I'll dry the matcha cream puff tornado at my next visit, I see those types of drinks in the bay but it nice to finally see it in Stockton. read more

I came to Tea 86 with my four kids to beat the heat, and we were greeted right away by the owner -- who actually did my nails once before opening this shop! That was such a cool full-circle moment. We decided to order from the kiosk so the kids could take their time looking through all the options. We ended up getting six drinks and two snacks, and everything came out pretty fast, which was impressive considering how much we ordered. The only odd moment was while a male staff member was trying to take an order from a group of ladies -- they seemed more focused on peeking into the back of the shop and trying to talk to the owner, who I'm sure was busy making drinks. It felt a little awkward, but that's not on the staff -- they handled it well. I also really appreciated that the shop was nice and cool inside, especially on such a hot day. And this might not be a big deal to everyone, but for me, a clean restroom is a major plus -- and theirs was spotless. Good job, Tea 86! read more

The service was super friendly, the drinks were delicious, we had passion mix fruit green tea and oolong lychee watermelon tea with boba.

The decor in this business is so cute and inviting, definitely coming back when I'm in town again. read more

Never coming back here again. read more

First impression inside of the place VERY CLEAN! Very nice people it seems family owned. The staff was very patient and very detailed explained well about the drinks. They are also polite. I've tried their popcorn chicken and it's delicious! Very fast on the service part. They don't use fructose syrup they make their own sugar daily. They also use fresh fruits and fresh ingredients. You can customize the sweetness on the drinks that's what I love! I come here traditionally to try different drinks. Boba is very soft. Definitely a hidden gem and I recommend giving this place a try!!!! read more

Cute place and great service! The Vietnamese coffee with sea salt cream was perfect. The pearl milk tea was also good (although I like boba a little more firm). The popcorn chicken (I ordered extra crispy) was perfectly crispy and still tender + very generous portion + tasting seasoning salt & paprika = awesome! The fried tofu (also ordered extra crispy) was crispy yet also had a great mochi-like chew and was soft inside + same seasoning salt & paprika was perfect sprinkled in top. Both was piping hot, so delish. This place is definitely worth the 7-minute detour off the I-5. We will definitely return next time we drive through Stockton. read more

I hardly leave Yelp reviews, but we were passing through Stockton and needed some Boba Tea, and I absolutely loved this place. The drink was great, the boba was chewy, and the selection was really good! I also had really great customer service and the wait was very short, even for the popcorn chicken (Which was so good, I wish I had rice). I highly recommend this place. read more

Love their drinks! It's so well decorated in here. And omg the calamari is really good with the big sized portion too. Love coming in here!

I absolutely love supporting small businesses and this place is 100% worth spending at! There are plenty of options for drinks and snacks. The cashier was kind and we were served quickly after ordering. I ordered a Thai green milk tea with boba and you can taste the fresh milk and cane sugar they advertise! I would say this beats a lot of milk tea shops in San Jose. The area it's located in feels a little sketchy which is unfortunate for attracting new customers, but all the better when finding a hidden gem such as this one! read more

I haven't tried their food yet. But the drinks were good and refreshing. My favorites are peach citrus tea and pineapple passionfruit tea. One thing I didn't like was that they put too much ice in a drink, it fills up like ¾ of a cup, and you have to ask for it to be less ice. The menu had a variety of drinks and toppings to choose from. The art and decorations were definitely 10/10, super cute and dreaming. Service was nice and helpful. They also have a reward system that you can put your number in to earn points for a free drink. read more

Tea 86 - Left to right: Thai Green Tornado with Puff, Brown Sugar Boba, and Strawberry Stormy with Cheese - Bubble Tea Near Me - Stockton, California

Tea 86 is located in a quiet and spacious plaza with plenty of parking. It does not look that big from the exterior, but the interior is spacious/spread out. There are some seating here as well for you to chill and enjoy your boba. I finally get to try them, since the first time I stopped by, they were closed due to an emergency. I tried their Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and Mango Smootea with Cheese Foam + boba. The milk tea tasted like sweet milk with not much of a tea taste to it. The boba was a bit on the harder side, as well as too sugary - it altered the drink with the strong brown sugar taste and made the milk tea taste like a cup of brown sugar cereal milk after mixing. The mango drink was a bit on the icier side, it tasted more like sugary dried mangos blended in the smoothie, rather than fresh/real mangos. read more
